She said it was the wrong hole but it felt so right.

Nah, likely Angolan. Angolan Portuguese speakers sometimes also use "uΓ©", and the genus in question is African.

Brazilian here. We do use "uΓ©". Usually, it means "What the heck?"

Edit: typo thx :)

B[r]azilian here. We do use β€œué”.

I am aware "uΓ©" is also commonly used here, as the "also" in my comment shows. And my point still stands, this stuff is likely from Angola, given the genus in question is African:

Thanks for the info. I'm just letting you know (I'm case you didn't already know) that in Brazil we do use "uΓ©". I know nothing about birds, so I wouldn't know. I'm not missing the point; I'm adding to the conversation. Thank you, either way.

I think they'd be too fat after eating to get out, at least for a while
